Hopefully headed to a better place too
Many of you are familiar with my first truck... my blue longhorn CST/20.

And... it's sad fate.

So i kept what i could... used MANY parts off of it, but I had to junk the front clip (duh) and the chassis and bed.
It relocated with me from Tx to ohio... at that point, it was going to replace the cab on the red GMC... but it was never ment to be.

instead, it sat in storage... bot in a mini-storage unit;

And at Fine69's place. it even got stored on a parts truck frame for a year or so.

Well... time to let it go.... cut her loose.
Sold it to a board member (jtlauer) today... he came down from the Cleveland area, we dug it out, strapped it down, and with any luck, Joel will fix it up, and put it on his 69 restoration project.

That's Joel

Here he is again... I'm the one behind the camera with a Mtn Dew bottle...

Here it is at 60-ish MPH, moments before it went north... and I went south.
Wave bye bye to it.
